Adventures

ESYNOLA

Edible Schoolyard New Orleans is a FirstLine Schools signature program that changes the way children eat, learn, and live. LHA features the DreamKeeper Garden, where students participate in gardening, cooking classes and animal husbandry through on-campus interactions with our goats, chickens, and more!

Experiences

Our scholars embark on end-of-the-year lessons where they have the opportunity to visit college campuses, explore new places and ideas, and learn about our nation’s history. End-of-the-year trips include Fontainebleau State Park, Baton Rouge, Atlanta, Memphis, Little Rock, Panama City, and Washington D.C.!
